After National Bundt Day (November 15th), December 7th ranks super high on my favorite days! It's my birthday today! Whoo hoo! I'm going to Disneyland (in the rain! what? rain in Southern Cal?! Well, the lines will be very short!)

My boyfriend ;) George Clooney with Vera Farmiga in Up in the Air (Dale Robinette Photo)

This weekend I started my celebrations with dinner for my friend Helen's birthday (I surround myself with December birthdayists!). And on Saturday I saw George Clooney in Up in the Air. [official website opens with music]. Oh dear. You have to see this film. It is very very well done, been getting great reviews, acting is Oscar worthy...and George Clooney is in a suit for 90% of the movie. Really. Enough said. And he dances at a wedding. And smiles a lot. Yeah, I'm going to see it again. I hope you catch it when it goes into wide release.

To celebrate turning 39... I'm having a give away. It is a One for You, One for Me birthday celebration!

I decided on a subscription to Everyday Food from the Martha empire. I read this magazine full of recipes at the library, and really like it. So, I thought I would treat myself to a sub, and buy one for you. I just went out to get a copy of it...and pulled out the subscription card inside. It is a Buy one, Get one free subscription deal!! Hee hee!

Oh, pick me, pick me!!! I actually use recipes from this magazine, when I picked it up once in awhile. And my birthday is in December! So, I am the natural choice! ha ha Happy Birthday! Great Giveaway.

Is it bad that when I hear "George Clooney" I think "Facts of Life"? Not as a charming crook in Ocean's Eleven, or as a suave doctor on ER, but as a handyman surrounded by awkward 20-somethings. I guess the early impressions stick with you, and he was pretty....

Happy Birthday! I'm glad the bake sale was such a wonderful success! I really enjoyed your bundt marathon, I've added a bundt pan to my Christmas list, I want to try a bunch of your recipes :) Especially the one with nutella. Mmm-mm.

Happy birthday! I'll be daydreaming about the Every day subscription I might win while at work tomorrow (at a library no less) and while making my chocolate sour cream bundt cake this coming weekend. Thanks for the great blog.

Happy Birthday! What a way to celebrate! George Clooney, all dressed up for you. Surprisingly, in NorCal it didn't rain, yet it did down South. Well, I hope Disneyland was fun! So cute that you still enjoy it.

(BTW, I made my first bundt cake over Thanksgiving and thought of you! It was a delicious zucchini bundt cake using a bit of pudding and a bit of banana and lotsalotsa shredded zucchini.)

Being in England, I don't want the subscription (well, I do, but let's face it, a bogof on a magazine subscription isn't going to post free to here!), but still want to say hope you had a great birthday, you big ol' bundtalicious inspiration you! :-)

Happy Birthday Dahling! wait, no, no, no...ahem. Please hold...FELIZ CUMPLEANOS QUERIDA!!!! And you were so brave to go to D-land on a rainy day. So, so brave! I know who wouldn't want to spend a day at the Happiest Place on Earth on a rainy day. Seriously!

I bought a subscription for this magazine last year and got one for my daughter too. It was fun making things together. Well, it's run out now and I need more~! Happy Birthday to you!!! I also love a mystery and cooking!!

Birthdays are the best, except (even though I turned 30 this year) I like GETTING PRESENTS, not giving them to others on _my_ birthday (the rest of the year, totally, just not my birthday), your a much better person than I am :).

Happy Late Birthday. Disneyland is still great in the rain, even better in December. You can't be 39 you don't look a day over 25. Also thank you very much for brining all the goodies to LHQ for us to try.
